Stabbing Westward - Sometimes It Hurts Lyrics






Six o'clock in the morning
My head is ready to explode
I can't believe I made it home alive
I don't remember where I went
Or what I was drinking
And now it's made me sick
And I'm not denying
That I get this way
When I try to get over you
I get this way
When I try to get over you
Sometimes it hurts
So much to lose the one you love
Sometimes it hurts
So much to lose the one you love

I tried so hard to hate you
But it only makes it all worse
I only end up hating myself
And as my hatred grows
So do the lies
It's hard to face the truth sometimes
God I feel so useless
God I hate myself
When I try to get over you
I hate myself
Will I ever get over you

Sometimes it hurts
So much to lose the one you love
Sometimes it hurts
So much to lose the one you love

And after all this time you'd think I'd understand the way you feel
But no
I only think about myself
And it's driving you away
I always knew it would one day

Sometimes it hurts
So much to lose the one you love
Sometimes it hurts
So much to lose the one you love
Sometimes it hurts
So much to lose the one you love
Sometimes it hurts
So much to lose the one you love

    Stabbing Westward is a damn fine band.

  2. T.... S....

    “God it’s hard” “what?” “Being a criminal...” “well why don’t you stop” “...” *slouches away and plays rock music*

  3. R.... ....

    I heard this song on the radio for the first time a few weeks ago, had no idea it was from the 90s. Honestly sounded like a new release from one of these up and coming rock bands. Never even heard of Stabbing Westward (although the name does sound 90s)

  4. A.... L....

    Sexy as hell

  5. R.... A....

    God i feel so uselessssssssss!!!!

  7. R.... R....

    Who else is binging their music?

  8. N.... I....

    I fuckin love this song. High school loved this girl named Michelle, she just wanted to be close friends.. Yet she wrote me notes saying she loves me and can’t imagine life without me.
    She started dated this turd Tony, a druggy who used her and beat her.
    Never hung out with me again, I lost her.

    15 years later we get contact, she claims Tony was so good to her and how dare I call him an abusive loser. Huh.. women

    Sometimes it hurts so much

  12. P.... R....

    They could have been huge! Love them so much!

  13. B.... L....

    I wonder how much The Used listened to SW? They really remind me of each other.

  14. L.... s....

    Back when edgy and introverted was considered alternative. (Cool)
    I was 14 years old in this came out, damn I feel like such an old fart.

  15. C.... S....

    90s music videos were as weird as current commercials.

  16. P.... ....

    This is so emo it hurts.

  17. J.... B....

    THE MOST UNDERRATED BAND OF THE () () 90's FULL OF EMOTION AND SORROW and amazing industrial reflective rock

    J.... B....

    I know I'm super late to this..but I still so totally agree!

  18. h.... h....

    Always and forever

  19. J.... Z....

    Can they get back together just for one more tour..,.I missed them by like two years. I want purple hair because of christpher hall. Son of a

    J.... Z....

    They are touring now ;) and working on new music as SW.

  20. K.... A....

    dude its been years since ive heard this song oh the painful memories

  21. j.... ....

    Amazing song. Horrible video. So true.

  22. R.... &....

    Wow 😲 I was a teen when this came out. Anyone else??

    R.... &....

    Born in 87 so preteen lol but I started jamming to NIN,SW, TOOL,AIC etc. As a younging

    R.... &....

    I was in middle school

    R.... &....

    @Raymond Aranda 210sideshow me too

    R.... &....

    @Tara Croskey i was born 87 June

    R.... &....

    Was 17 back in '98 when this came out n just got the 20th anniversary vinyl reissue

  23. A.... L....

    Hmm, thinking back, I wonder why Stabbing Westward didnt blow up like Nirvana did?

    A.... L....

    Angsty Lady because nirvana is shit. And the general public loves shit music.

    A.... L....

    Angsty Lady they did for awhile, then this style got oversaturated and their next album sucked

    A.... L....

    @Dtr mbly Truth.

  24. T.... ....

    The singer looks like an American version of Alexander Markus on this video.

  25. m.... s....

    His voice is so buttery

  26. A.... ....

    It hurts like hell!!

  27. A.... A....

    sAW THE M LIVE!!

  28. a.... p....

    I accidentally found this band
    But they sound amazing
    And I relate

  29. d.... b....

    man back in the day. fuck you Sara. you bitch.

  30. R.... M....

    Kinda sounds like nine inch nails

  31. T.... S....

    Underrated

  32. D.... S....

    Think that After all this time I'd understand the way you feel!

  33. e.... ....

    stupid video for a good song

  34. M.... ....

    Deserves MORE Views!!!

  35. k.... ....

    Amazing song. Horrible video.

  36. N.... F....

    I've had the album since it came out in 1998 but never knew there was a video for this song

  37. N.... C....

    The reason this video seems silly/stupid is because they had to change the entire thing last minute to keep from getting sued. It was a video treatment based on "The Wizard of Oz". They had already shot the video, but couldn't get clearance from MGM (or whoever owns W-of-OZ); -so, they re-shot some filler and threw out most of the video. I  tried to find the Director's Cut, but apparently it isn't available. ---Look closely and you'll notice Ruby Slippers, the Wicked Witches' black cap, the poppy field, Auntie Em's house, and Dorothy's dress. I think the Little People were added footage also, therefore not fitting into the plot.

    N.... C....

    i wish the channel could pin this comment to the top. it explained a lot.

    N.... C....

    Ok, now this video actually makes semse. Thanks!!

    N.... C....

    Doesn't surprise me they couldn't get clearance. I'd like to see the original,this ones cool though

    N.... C....

    I always got the video I'm a big Stabbing Westward fan though always have been one of reasons I love video the poppy field the house the dress when he dances with it etc. He is so beautiful.

    N.... C....

    It's pretty obvious unless you've never seen wizard of oz.

  38. C.... D....

    One of the best Industrial bands of all time. Forever SW.

  39. T.... M....

    I love Stabbing Westward and this is a great song, but why on earth did Christopher Hall agree to this?

  40. J.... R....

    When you have videos as cool as the ones for Shame, What Do I Have To Do and Save Yourself, this one comes off as really, really cheesy.

  41. T.... ....

    I love this song so much, facing this kind of pain right now, been fighting my broken heart for almost a year over the perfect man that left me.

    T.... ....

    TwitchTheWicked69 he's not perfect if he left ya

    T.... ....

    You can date me! Im pretty much perfect!

  42. R.... B....

    I don't think the video is THIS bad. I think there is a lot of symbolic meaning involved, and we cannot get everything.

  43. R.... V....

    awesome song.....dumb as fuck video

  44. L.... B....

    Is that Peter Dinklage running the backhoe?

  45. l.... ....

    All of SW's videos were well-directed and creative.....................except this one.  WTF were they thinking??  Has nothing to do with the song.  Sometimes it really DOES hurt to watch this, for sure!

    l.... ....

    lurch321 drugs

  46. S.... R....

    Matt pinfield brought me here...long long ago

  47. L.... ....

    Jesus. This guy looks EXACTLY like my ex. I mean he reminds me of him. To a T!

  48. M.... L....

    don't do drugs

  49. m.... ....

    This is a great song but the video is so damn dumb.

    m.... ....

    michaelclld they're not real good with the videos

  50. j.... ....

    My all-time favorite band! Got to see them in concert twice! Wish I could've seen them more!

  51. i.... ....

    I want that blue shirt tho

  52. A.... N....

    someone I knew

  53. A.... N....

  55. A.... K....

  56. A.... K....

    you remind of the man I loved more than I thought possible...he committed suicide 11 yrs ago...down to that nosering

  57. S.... W....

    they kinda remind me of that band from queen of the damned

    S.... W....

    Lestat! ...which is pretty much Korn.

    S.... W....

    They used Korn and Stabbing westward songs...and others. You have the internet...look it up!

    S.... W....

    Damn you guys are all wrong. It was mostly Johnathan Davis and Wayne static as well as Manson. And one Depeche Mode song....

    S.... W....

    My manager put me on to them because I told him I frequently listen to the QotD soundtrack

    S.... W....

    @Linds Ryan exactly and Chester Bennington and Marliyn Manson

  58. A.... L....

    A.... L....

    Sim reconheci pelo leite ksvdkdjksbskd

  59. S.... ....

    kurt cobain

  60. d.... ....

    Why does such an awesome and powerful song like this have such a shitty video? Like I know this was typical with weirdness and midgets in the 90's but, this was the wrong song choice for that.

    They were better off filming in a dark alley for free just watching the singer drunkenly break down or something. Least it would make more sense.

    d.... ....

    +dirtydt someone can't into wizard of oz or the significance behind it in conjunction to Chris' song.

    d.... ....

    Midgets!? Lol you must be older like me it’s not PC to call them that the 90's where like the 60's with harder drugs and harder music(better)

  61. M.... L....

    What in the living fuck are those midgets or sorry "dwarfs" about

    M.... L....

    Wizard of Oz

  62. A.... R....

    Epic band is damn right! I will say most underated band of all time.I think there dark undertones were the reason for a lack of mainstream success

    A.... R....

    Adams Rodgers its a shame they’re as underrated as Faith No More’s angel dust album.

  63. J.... Z....

    Omg after heari g this song for years what a terrible and nonrelarable video

    J.... Z....

    +Jimmy Zarkis look up juxtaposition. And get a sense of humor.

  64. S.... ....

    Very Underrated Band!

  65. A.... H....

    that's f***ed up..................I LOVE it!
     

  66. c.... f....

    I know the song but never seen the video after all these years, and now.........WTF???????

  67. A.... R....

    And after all this time you'd think I'd understand the way you feel but no... I only think about myself.  And it's driving you away...  I always knew it would one day.

  68. M.... R....

    Some video director is laughing his ass off all the way to the bank with this willy wonka schlok.

    M.... R....

    @Marc Chemaly It's not Willy Wonka...it's the Wizard of Oz...sheesh.

  69. T.... ....

    Great song, god awful video.

  70. d.... ....

    Great band. Epic even. But some of the worst music videos I've ever seen. Their videos never do their music justice.

    d.... ....

    that's the 90s for you.

    d.... ....

    You'd have to read the Wizard of Oz books to understand the music video. It's drawing heavily on them--- I think it suits perfectly. The "scarecrow" being mocked by the munchkins in the field particularly.

    d.... ....

    @sasuke5088 no, that's heroin for you..

  71. T.... B....

    He needs a hug.

  72. T.... B....

    I like chris hall's hair.

  73. F.... ....

    "...will I ever get over you?!"

  74. I.... M....

    Ugly assume red shoes

  75. S.... L....

    Great song and band!

  76. R.... H....

    Stabbing Westward has saved my life. Anyone else relate?

    R.... H....

    Yes me too 😊

    R.... H....

    During breakups yes, I had to play the Darkest Days album to get over someone quickly

    R.... H....

    well I wouldnt go as far as to say they have saved my life.. but its a good band for sure.

    R.... H....

    oh yea - through all my lucky 13 break ups

  77. g.... ....

    i cannot believe this is 16 years old

    g.... ....

    I've been on a 90's kick lately, and I keep finding myself baffled when I find out how old this music is. I was listening to some Toadies, and their album Rubberneck came out 20 fucking years ago, when I was 8....

    g.... ....

    @dreamtheaterz28
    damn it stop making me realize im getting old

  78. l.... w....

    great video thnxs

  79. B.... S....

    Still remember this song.....

  80. 3.... ....

    and that's what really happens when you go "RAINBOW TRIPPIN" :-Þ

  81. A.... ....

    Who are you referring to, & who the hell is Scott Hall? Christopher Hall is/was the lead singer for Stabbing Westward.

  82. B.... F....

    Sometimes it hurts to love this song so much.

  83. e.... ....

    what a shame

  84. M.... G....

    good song, cant believe only 200,000 views.... The general mass' taste in music is horrible

  85. A.... ....

    Same here. I think after what happened with Koch, it was inevitable that SW were kind of going to end up on the outs since Koch didn't want their "industrial" style to carry into their self-titled album. Sucks, but unfortunately, companies suck sometimes. The Dreamings' stuff is definitely up to par with SW in my opinion. Still raw lyrics, awesome riffs & great music all around. He is a great guy, I do agree. All the guys are really cool. :)

  86. b.... W....

    you are so right I have been a fan since the begining.Times were changing and he wanted to adapt to new rock.Ran into chris in new Orleans on bourbon st by himself had a show at the house of blues got a bunch of pictures and spent the day drinking . a real person had a blast

  87. J.... T....

    I also miss Stabbing Westward very much. They are still my favorite rock band. Filter is a great Industrial Rock band too.

  88. N.... ....

    I feel ya there. I am watching this because someone asked me, "If there was a song that played whenever you walked into a room what would it be?" This is what came to mind. :-/

  89. A.... ....

    Hall... It's Hall. Not Hill.

  90. A.... ....

    Koch wanted to change SW's look & sound & make them more "poppy" per-say. Therefore, it really kind of caused SW's fanbase to die out, due to the change. However, I liked their fourth album, even if it isn't seen as a true SW album. But also, conflicts in the band from what I heard, 'caused some of the issues as well.

  91. A.... ....

    Hah, this video is very weird, & really doesn't go with the song IMO either. I would have envisioned something much darker to go with the lyrics.
    SW will never get back together though. Christopher has The Dreaming now, & he's content & happy with that. They are good, you should look them up if you haven't. They do SW songs in their setlists too, they just recently this summer covered this. Got a video of it too from when I saw them.

    A.... ....

    AestheticStar wanna hang out?

  92. L.... B....

    agreed

  93. d.... ....

    this IS the Epitome of MUSIC

  94. J.... R....

    Hahaha yeah just realised that myself...oops

  95. M.... H....

    F*** I miss bands like this. Where is rock music?!?!

  96. T.... ....

    That book, that movie, and this video all have something in common. I can see the creators taking lots of drugs during the making.

    Chris Hall rules!

  97. D.... ....

    This is song is for every ex....yet not.

  98. R.... H....

    wizard of oz folks
